I would check the minimum water pressure requirements. I know water pressure used to be an issue with a residential system. Also required the increased in size on the main water supply line or a separate service to be effective. Not to mention upgrade of water meters and possible addition of a back flow preventer.

As a Louisiana licensed plumber and someone who sees sprinkler fitters install Comercial systems every day I don't see how this isn't regulated for residential applications. Seems like at very least a permit would need to be pulled.

The parish even requires a permit for me to swap out a toilet. They can go frick themselves. I'm not trying to pay anyone else for something so simple. Perfect way for a $600 job to turn into a $2000 job
